Commercial Water Heaters

Wherever you are, having a constant supply of hot water is very important. In most cases, it is a necessity more than a luxury. Imagine being in a resort on a cold winter night for a work trip, exhausted from multiple meetings, only to find out there is no hot water in your hotel.

All commercial establishments must strive to provide their customers with hot water, especially during colder seasons. Operating your business without a water heater is a big no-no.

Some business owners have the perception that commercial water heater installation can cost a fortune. While installing a hot water heater can be an investment, having the proper facilities will entice more clients and bring in more profit. In essence, your water heater will pay for itself.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Commercial water heaters are built for high-demand consumption of hot water. For hot water tanks, they hold anywhere upwards of 250 gallons, while residential water heaters are less than 100 gallons.

Water heaters for commercial units are also often bulkier, made of heavier metal components and take more power to run.

Businesses and facilities vary in water requirements. A small b&b, office, or retail store requires less hot water than apartments, condominiums, or an office builds. On average, a commercial building consumes 12.8 gallons per square foot.

 

Choosing what hot water heater you need for your business, however, shouldn’t be based on these averages. Your water heater requirement would have to be based on several factors such as fixtures, daily operational hours, venting requirements, peak hours, and location.

 

While you can work this out yourself, getting an expert water heating contractor is still a better solution.

Tank Storage water heater

Tank Storage water heater works by producing hot water and storing it in a tank until the water is used. It is the most common type of water heater. It is used widely, even in residential houses. One advantage of this type is its affordability and extensive usage. Since a lot of people are using this, it is also easier to find service providers that can help you maintain and repair this type. However, using tank storage water heater can only provide you with limited water supply. Since it operates by using stored tank water, your amount of hot water is not as continuous as you would like it to be. This type of water heater is also prone to energy loss. If your tank is not well-insulated, excessive heat loss may occur.


Tankless water heater

If you are a commercial establishment that caters to the needs of many, a tankless water heater might be best. A tankless water heater is also known as a demand water heater. This type of water heater produces hot water instantaneously. There is no need for you to wait since the water supply does not pass thru storage. Tankless water heaters generally cost a little more than the tank storage but provide you with a constant and limitless supply. Despite costing more, you will save money by avoiding energy loss in the long run.
